The project is funded by the Government of Rwanda through LODA and the construction contract was awarded to MICON REAL LINE and the supervision awarded to MUDICO Ltd for respective amounts of 672.969104 Frw and 8.060.000 Frw. The works started on 23/01/2015 and the first works contract duration was 6 months.
The execution of this project is experiencing problems because of low capacity of the contractor and lack of experience from both Contractor and the Supervising Company.
Several meetings were conducted whereby the Contractor and the Supervisor were requested to speed up the works in order to complete the project.
By the end of March 2016, the overall progress of works was at 68%.
